Crash Modification Factors Clearinghouse

January 25, 2010

The Crash Modification Factors Clearinghouse (CMF) is just one of the tools and resources available to help transportation professionals make safety decisions. The Highway Safety Manual (HSM), expected to be released in the spring of 2010, will provide practitioners with the best factual information and tools to facilitate roadway design and operational decisions based on explicit consideration of their safety consequences. One of these tools is the inclusion of crash modification factors, which can be used to support an agency's roadway safety management process or as input to the safety prediction methods.
